Favorite Bible verse: Ephesians 4: 31-32 “Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.”

A graveside service will be held Tuesday, September 24, 2019 at 10:00am in Town Creek Cemetery. Reverend Al Jackson will be officiating the service.
